Participants:
Amy Turner, Mohawk Valley Community Action Agency, Inc. (MVCAA)
Cornelia E. Brown, MAMI Interpreters
Rev. Bill Dodge, Rescue Mission
Cassandra Sheets, Mohawk Valley Council of Alcoholism/Addictions
The participants discussed what the next steps should be regarding the ED Group, especially after the recent economic impact panel discussion. After hearing updates on other ED Group efforts around nonprofit economic impact in Binghamton and Syracuse, the Committee decided to set a follow up meeting to further discuss undertaking an economic impact study and to hear from other directors in Binghamton and possibly Syracuse.
The Committee also discussed the need to gather and communicate nonprofit impact information to the community, elected officials, and other audiences. They specifically discussed visiting the Utica Common Council, and presenting a joint presentation about local nonprofits.
Next steps:
- Set a follow up Steering Committee meeting to discuss economic impact
- Discuss possible ideas for September’s program meeting
